Ingredients
- 1 (8-ounce) wedge Parmigiano-Reggiano, at room temperature
- 2 tablespoons aged balsamic vinegar
- 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
- 1/2 teaspoon flaky sea salt
- 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 8 thin breadsticks (grissini)
Instructions
- Place the Parmigiano-Reggiano wedge on a serving board or plate.
- Drizzle the balsamic vinegar and olive oil over the top of the cheese.
- Sprinkle with flaky sea salt and black pepper.
- Arrange the breadsticks around the cheese wedge.
- Serve immediately, allowing guests to break off pieces of cheese and dip into the balsamic and oil.
Tips
- For best flavor, use Parmigiano-Reggiano that has been aged at least 24 months.
- If you don't have aged balsamic vinegar, reduce regular balsamic vinegar in a saucepan until syrupy.
- Store leftover cheese wrapped in wax paper in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
